Beauty is neither a history of art, nor a history of aesthetics but Umberto Eco draws on the histories of both these disciplines to define the ideas of beauty that have informed sensibilities from the classical world to modern times. In terms of form and style, Beauty has been conceived for a vast and diversified readership: taking in painting, sculpture, architecture, film, photography, the decorative arts, novels and poems, it offers a rich and intelligent panorama of this huge subject. It traces the philosophy of aesthetics through history and examines some of the many treatises that have sought to define it. Beauty is Umberto Eco at his most captivating and eclectic: we read not only of Botticelli and Michelangelo but of how the fashion of the 1960s owes much to ancient Egyptian dress, and how ancient Roman and eighteenth-century hairstyles have much in common. It makes the familiar new, and sheds a brilliant new light on the unfamiliar. Illustrated in full colour throughout and produced to the highest standards, Beauty is an indispensable book.
Umberto Eco is the author of four bestselling novels, The Name of The Rose, Foucault's Pendulum, The Island of The Day Before and, most recently, Baudolino. His collections of essays include Five Moral Pieces, Kant and the Platypus, Serendipities, Travels In Hyperreality, and How To Travel With a Salmon and Other Essays. A Professor of Semiotics at the University of Bologna, Umberto Eco lives in Italy.

评分阐述美的观念从古希腊到现代。拿一个世纪拉开与距离来看,有一个区别于上世代的不连贯的特征,那就是这个时代的“美”。 如作者导论所言“美的观念,千汇万状,在这些变化之上,可能有某种施诸百世百世万族皆准的规则,本书并不期望不计代价地搜寻这些规则,我们不做此意...
评分《美的历史》先写于《丑的历史》,但为满足我个人的猎奇心理,先看的《丑的历史》。《美的历史》相较于《丑的历史》,材料更为充足,文风更加严肃,作者的主观情感降为零,是一本非常冷峻的史书。而主题“美”,也比“丑”,更为受到正统和大众的关注,因此无论是流派,还是作...
